Taliban benefiting from funds sent to Afghanistan from the US and from other donors

Every two weeks, approximately $80 million in aid pours into Afghanistan. This aid is intended to support humanitarian purposes. One of the caveats to this humanitarian aid is that the Taliban are not among the beneficiaries.

‘Mentally incompetent ‘ vets?

Look to hear that phrase more in the near future: The Senate has approved a measure that would ease some veterans’ access to guns, brushing aside objections from most Democrats and the Department of Veterans Affairs that doing so could hinder suicide prevention efforts. The legislation would prohibit the VA from reporting veterans who are […]

No more bigotry

Well, we have successfully taken care of the bigotry problem in the US: Robert E. Lee’s controversial statue has been melted down (to be repurposed into other art. Maybe a statue of St. Floyd, whose death united us all in peace and harmony?) The statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee that was once at […]

Book banning, or prohibiting children from mature content?

US supports Hamas

Armed groups need a few things to function effectively, and without them, they just don’t work well at all. We talk about discipline, intelligence, compartmentalization, logistics, arms, etc. but the bottom line is – the bottom line. Money, honey. Moollah, mullah.

Standing by their principles…or not

    Following the various condemnations of Israel by the intellegentsia, it’s interesting to see them loyally stand fast with each other. Until someone objects and they do a 180.
